Layout, Placement & Routing
CR-5000 Board Designer facilitates the intelligent and smooth development of schematics into layout, allowing the designer to quickly and easily create, re-use or adapt designs. Everyday tasks are made intuitive and automated for complex placement patterns, speeding up the most challenging implementations......
Advanced interactive placement and routing tools are available, providing component push-aside and spring-back functions, giving the user ultimate control over components with split power and ground planes or test points. Also offered is fast automatic concurrent placement of components on the PCB, based on schematics constraints like component grouping and clustering.
The automatic router masters the simultaneous routing of multiple nets, including differential pairs, with true 45-degree routing. Routing rules and constraints ensure correct design implementation through automatic length balancing, impedance matching, overshoot and crosstalk limiting, and route shielding. Routing around BGAs is greatly improved through rules-by-area, with trace width and clearances changing automatically when within such areas.
